I have checked and bled the hydraulics several times and they seem to work properly, and have new kits. I removed the slave and pushed the pivot arm by hand, it moves too easily and then it stops. The clutch disk appears to have plenty of lining on it, and I don't smell any burning asbestos. I am thinking that the fingers are worn out making it too easy to push in (by hand), and since the fingers are weak, it does not have enough pressure to return the TOB (throw out bearing) to the rear of the input shaft. I have released the hydraulic pressure and the pivot arm does not return on its own, even with the return spring attached.
